Já passou, já passou
It's already gone, it's already gone
Se você quer saber
If you want to know
Eu já sarei, já curou
I've already healed, it’s all good now
Me pegou de mal jeito
It caught me off guard
Mas não foi nada, estancou
But it was nothing, it stopped
Já passou, já passou
It's already gone, it's already gone
Se isso lhe dá prazer
If this brings you pleasure
Me machuquei, sim supurou
I got hurt, yes it did fester
Mas afaguei meu peito
But I soothed my heart
E aliviou
And it felt better
Já falei, já passou
I've already said it, it's already passed
Faz-me rir, ha ha ha
Make me laugh, ha ha ha
Você saracoteando daqui pra acolá
You spinning around here and there
Na Barra, na farra
In Barra, at the party
No Forró Forrado
At the Forró Forrado
Na Praça Mauá, sei lá
In Praça Mauá, I don't know
No Jardim de Alá
In the Garden of Allah
Ou no Clube do Samba
Or at the Samba Club
Faz-me rir, faz-me engasgar
Make me laugh, make me choke
Me deixa catatônico
Leave me catatonic
Com a perna bamba
With a wobbly leg
Mas já passou, já passou
But it's already gone, it's already gone
Recolha o seu sorriso
Gather up your smile
Meu amor, sua flor
My love, your flower
Nem gaste o seu perfume
Don't waste your perfume
Por favor
Please
Que esse filme
Because this movie
Já passou
Has already passed
